Siskiyou County, CA Parking Rules: RV & Boat Parking (2026)

Siskiyou County does not publish a stand-alone county-wide parking ordinance limiting where a resident may keep a recreational vehicle, boat or utility trailer on private rural land; such uses are addressed through Title 10 (Planning and Zoning) and nuisance/junk-vehicle review on a case-by-case basis by the Planning Division of Community Development. On a County road or its right-of-way, parking is controlled by the California Vehicle Code. CVC Section 22500 prohibits stopping or parking in front of a public or private driveway, on a sidewalk, in a crosswalk, within an intersection, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, or in any posted no-parking area, and this applies equally to RVs, boats and trailers. Critically for this far-northern snow county, Siskiyou County Ordinance No. 770 prohibits parking in the roadway during snow-removal operations, and the County Public Works snow policy states snow 'usually is plowed to the right' creating berms on both sides. Residents in snow communities such as Mount Shasta-area unincorporated zones, McCloud and Lake Shastina should keep RVs, boats and trailers off the road and out of the right-of-way so plows can pass.
